<p class="MsoNormal">Chris,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I certainly do not see the Healey 100 in the same light as an A90 convertible, completely different bodies, but I agree very similar engine. As far as the Fiesta is concerned, I am just wondering why, other than money, would DMH align himself
with a Ford product that, at the time, was just an econobox, and not a very good one at that. As Rick Neville indicated, apparently it was a quick little car, I certainly never drove it, basically read the articles about it, first in Road & Track magazine.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Its rarity is not in question, I guess, for me it is so totally different that what we were used to see from the Healey family, especially being associated with a Ford product. At that time, the Japanese cars, such as the Datsun, Toyota
and Honda were far better cars in that same configuration of models that to me, it would have better suited their image. I am glad someone likes it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers,</p>
